WWE Champion CM Punk said on Saturday at the Wizard World Comic Con in Philadelphia that WWE is planning to reveal a new WWE Championship belt. He said he’s seen the new title and it’s about 20 pounds heavier than the current spinner belt, however, he doesn’t feel it’s “any better” than the current one.

20 Pounds? Damn. But it's about time. But I honestly feel that WWE's creativity with designing new championship belts have falle off the wayside. (I.E. Divas and Tag Team Championships the most).

I feel, like with the Intercontinetal Championship, the new design wil harken similarly to the Winged Eagle design.

Daniel Moreno WWE

with an extra 20 pounds the refs wont be able to lift it up

matt

i have a feeling its going to be very ugly simmilar to the wwe ecw silver belt or the ugly tag belts. just bring back the eagle wwf belt the one bret hart had

Dave Barton

Isn’t the spinner already far heavier than the other belts? Cripes, I could so a bigger belt being made for a superheavyweight like Mark Henry, but Punk is a cruiserweight!

Get a nice workout by lifting the belt over your head every night for a few months

It'll just have a giant Cena face on it.

Dangerous Lee

20 pounds heavier is an exaggeration. That would mean the new belt would weigh between 30 and 40 pounds. For anyone who is into weightlifting, that’s a rediculous amount of weight to have on your waist or throwing up onto your shoulder. Also sounds impractical for the way the belt should be used.
